The Carbolite range of general
purpose laboratory chamber furnaces can be used for a wide variety of
applications and in many different sectors of industry and research
including:
Heat treating - hardening tempering and
annealing Thermal aging processes Ignition tests Firing of ceramic
materials Enamelling, bonding,
fusing and sintering Non ferrous melting Decomposition in chemical
anaysis Digestion of samples Gravimetric analysis High temperature curing
and debonding
Whilst all furnaces are fitted
with a chimney or exhaust vent, we do not recommend that they are used
for ashing where significant amounts of carbon and other combustible
volatiles are emitted.
Furnaces may sometimes be damaged by chemical attack
as a result of corrosive atmospheres generated by the process. Examples
include low melting point oxides (eg. lead, sodium and potassium) fluxes,
hardening salts, sulphur compounds and halides.
Stylish
and sturdy - both the inner and outer case are constructed
from zinc coated steel, the outer being finished in two tone, hard wearing
stoved epoxy/polyester coating.
Positive break safety switch
- activates isolation of the chamber from all power lines when
the door is opened.
Convection cooling -
the double skinned construction promotes convected air flow for a cool
outer case.
Chamber exhaust vent -
promotes the extraction of fumes from the chamber generated
by the process.
Solid state control -
zero voltage switching and rapid cycle time for smooth and reliable
control.
Digital
temperature control - the control module houses a range of digital
instrumentation for precise temperature and process control.
Door action - On
the CWF, RWF and GPC furnaces, a vertical counterbalanced door mechanism
keeps the hot door insulation away from the operator when the door is
opened. The VCF model has a parallel door mechanism - easily operated
with one hand - which also ensures the hot insulation rediates away
from the operator, in this case downwards.
